Welcome. Please check this post out.. it is full of tried and tested advice... and is worth reading.

Slow and steady is the mantra.... rest days, no negotiable and with non impact training for strength and stamina on a few of those rest days too. Walking the dog.. excellent :)

Linked with a healthy eating regime, this is a winning combination and may help you to lose weight. Take a peek at our sister site. Weight Loss NHS... quite a few folk on here, are on there too and find it really works well.

Keep posting your runs on here too... for encouragement and great support.

Well done on the first run...enjoy!

Well done!

I’m no expert (week 1 run 3 next), but I can honestly say that I feel better after starting this.

Keep going. You’ve done one of the hardest parts - getting up and doing the first one!

The dog will love it too, I’m sure!
